The London & Port Stanley (L&PS) 5th Anniversary Edition route, New template project Options

[dgionet]

In 2005 was released the original LPS route ( version 2) by Wayne Campbell and, in 2010 , version 3.01, with major enhancements.

While Benny was testing the LIRR Route template, I have been working on a template pack for the 5th anniversary edition of the route. The template project is now finished and is being tested.

The project has 8 templates and more than 75 serviceable sidings. The timeframe is in the 1930's. For this project, two Canadian National (CN) cabooses have been released today in the Trainsim File Library to add some traffic on the CN line in London.

Here they are:

Among the templates, there are two mainline (NB & SB), 2 local (NB & SB) and switching templates in London (2) & Port Stanley (2).

Here are some shots from activities generated with AG.

Hi again.

Benny has tested the templates and consider them ready for release. Once again, thanks Benny for your time with testing! Thumbs up!

On my side, here are shots from the LONDON Template, servicing the industries and sidings in the London area. It has CN Freight and LPS traffic included. Make sure to clear if possible the LPS mainline due to passenger departures from the LPS station.

I have uploaded today the last two remaining downloads needed for the project in the Trainsim file library: One MCRR and one Wabash caboose, each one of the era. I believe it will be available tomorrow in the F/L.

Will complete the readme file and will get back to confirm its availability for our users.
